Planète Enfants & Développement (PE&D) is an international NGO, based in Cambodia since 1984, entirely devoted to providing to vulnerable children the necessary conditions for their well- being and development. PE&D has a vision of a society in which children and young people have access to essential social, health, educational and cultural services which allow them to develop harmoniously and to flourish within their family and community without any discrimination.
Project Overview:
Planète, Enfants & Développement (PE&D) initiated a project entitled Housing and living conditions improvement in urban poor communities of Phnom Penh (HALI) in 2018, building on previous work with local NGO partner Samathapeal Khnom Organization (SKO). The project supports residents in informal settlements by improving homes and making them safer, strengthening community link and delivering family psychosocial support and training.
Since 2018, PE&D implemented two phases of the HALI project in the urban poor of Phnom Penh. Phase 1 was launched from July 2018 – June 2021, targeted 8 poor informal settlements in the south while Phase 2 was from July 2021 – June 2024, and targeted 8 poor informal settlements in the north. Based on lessons learnt of the previous phases and the overall context of Cambodia, the last phase will start from July 2024 – June 2027, targeting 4 poor informal settlements. The objectives of the project focus on providing housing renovations, psychosocial supports and income generation opportunities and promoting gender equality as a cross-cutting issue. Moreover, continued strengthening capacity of existing partners and building capacity of a new partner to replicate the construction components still remains as one of the project objectives.
